The bread displays at Milano have always drawn my attention. On one afternoon, my husband and I finally decided to try something from this market, namely, an item from the deli that we could pack for our Central Park picnic. There was a line, of course, there always is, and the wait was longer than what we were willing to endure for fare as simple and as common as a sandwich. It was worth the 20-minute wait. We ordered the Milano special, packed with cold meats, tomatoes, pickled peppers, cheese, and lettuce between two soft sesame rolls. It looked magnificent. It tasted magnificent. It was a sandwich to rule all sandwiches. I'd brave the line for that any day. read more

wow wow wow. We went today on mother's day around noon and only waited 30 min. We got two sandwiches and a few cookies, OH and tried the cheesy pasta shells (the sauce and melted cheese was everything) Also, the feel of the market is cozy and special. The staff is super nice and eager to help. It feels like a special neighborhood gem and you can really feel the family owned vibe. 1. Proscuitto burtata (amore) - fresh fresh fresh and quality ingredients. The proscuitto was perfect along with the burrata, arugula and balsamic glaze on ciabatta which was sweet mix. We were deciding on this one and the proscuitto tomato but we are glad we got this one! 2. Chicken caesar salad wrap- I think I could easily say this is the best caesar salad wrap i've had. The dressing was light and not overpowering with the mix of the chicken, croutons and outside wrap was a truly stellar combination. Very fresh and wasnt soggy one bit. the cookies: small black n white cookie, rainbow cookie and chocolate sprinkle and all were hits! my favorite was the black n white because the icing melts right off the soft cookie texture and tastes more like a cake than a cookie. All were amazing and is a must try when visiting. absolutely rec when you're on the east side! read more

I visited Milanos this past Sunday evening with my boyfriend and his daughter for our dinner. We wanted to try the viral chicken cesar wrap, and I wanted to try lit anything with mortadella. there was a line but it moved very quickly. there is so much to shop and look through. the by the lb food looked okay, half good half ehhhh. To make this short, the wrap sucked. no flavor, lacked seasoning, best part was the croutons. The worker made me a special sandwich, so idk the name bc I believe it was a custom, chicken cutlet, mortadella, burrata, arugula, roasted peppers, and balsamic. delicious!!! I would say. steer away from the viral, and make ur own sandy. bread was delicious. ingredients were fresh. I would go back for a chix vodka parm. read more

Everything needs improvement. Slow line, not friendly service, food is mediocre at best but a lot is overcooked and terrible. Their tomatoe sauce tastes like supermarket off the shelf sauce. The tomatoe sauce sours within 1 day when refrigeratorated at home. No wonder, so much food is left out and not refrigerated. read more

Great options here at Milano, and great menu. Sometimes bread runs out so get there early! Service is speedy and tends to keep the line moving. It's a bit crowded during busy times but that adds to the the vibes. read more

Been here a few times and every time it's been delicious! The sandwiches are always made right there in your face from fresh ingredients and it's a clean Deil the staff are friendly and they also have a great selection of different types of goodies. Next time I definitely got to try some of their delicious looking desserts from the bakery. Cute little Deil / Market some of the best sandwiches in Manhattan! read more

The milano special sandwich was pretty yummy! loaded with a lot of meats and a decent amount of veggies! the brussel sprouts were my favorite. they were flavorful and not too burnt. the food selection in the market is plentiful and they have a wide variety of things! i would definitely come back to try their other fresh foods~ they all honestly looked really appetizing. service was great! fast and efficient. the inside of the market is really small so its a little hard to move around if its busy. read more

Milano Market absolutely lives up to the hype. Had the famous Chicken Caesar Wrap and it was chef's kiss --perfectly seasoned chicken, crisp romaine, creamy Caesar, all wrapped up just right. Every bite hit. And the fried prosciutto ball?? Straight up drool mode Crispy on the outside, savory, rich, and insanely satisfying. Fast service, classic NYC deli vibes, and food that makes you immediately plan your next visit. If you're in the area and don't stop here, you're doing it wrong. Highly recommend. read more

Had to come for the Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap but ended up leaving more satisfied with the Amore sandwich! While the wrap was a generous portion, I found the wrap not tightly wrapped and the salad overdressed without much seasoning. If I had the option, the wrap would've been elevated with some Tabasco or hot sauce on the side. The Amore was perfect for a sunny day - the generous portion of salty prosciutto was paired deliciously with the fresh creamy burrata. The ciabatta was also delicious and chewy. I think we waited 20-30 mins but staying inside the cool market was nice and didn't feel too long! read more

Milano Sandwiches are Hands Down the Best as far as I'm concerned located on the upper East Side. They are HUGE and I can only eat half so it lasts me for two meals. My favorites are #11 The Padrino, which is breaded chicken, cutlet, fresh mozzarella, red peppers, mayo and balsamic vinaigrette on semolina brea I also like the #3 All-American sandwich which has roast beef, ham, turkey, swiss cheese, american cheese, lettuce, and tomato on a semolina hero. I always add mayonnaise too. My family have ordered many times for catering with 6 foot heroes and 3 foot heroes and sides and Milanos always makes everything perfect! I highly recommend! All of their food is exceptional! They have awesome catering specials during the holidays and Super Bowl too! read more

Gf loves this spot and was very excited to bring me here, I got the dalton and she got the amore. The amore is super good, the arugula and burrata are a superb combo and the balsamic is *kisses fingers* so good. The dalton wasn't bad, just a smidge dry with the breaded chicken. It's a hefty boy with all the bacon piled on too (yes, I ate it all). So I'd do 3.5 stars if I could. read more

I was excited to try their chicken Caesar wrap, since it's all over social media and ranked pretty highly, but it fell short for me. It's not bad, but was still lacking a little something. One thing you can't complain about though is the size! It's pretty big and can really fill you up if you eat the whole thing, or you can make 2 small meals with it. I wouldn't trek all the way to UES for it, but I was already working in the area. Plan ahead if you go during lunch though, the line can get really long! All their other prepared foods looked really good too read more

So glad we tried their sandwiches. We will be going back. Ordered the famous chicken Caesar wrap and the Sinatra. I almost dislocated my jaw biting into to the sandwich. Sooo good! You may have to wait in line but worth it. read more

We dropped into this sandwich shop for something to have on a hot June afternoon. The sandwich was very good. However, we took it to Central Park to sit on a bench and enjoy and it was a very messy sandwich. I definitely say you're going to eat one of these, you need to be at a table so you don't get the stuff all over your shirt and pants. The food taste great, but I spent the rest of the day with spots all over my clothes. read more

Pretty solid. I really enjoyed my sandwich and there are many to choose from. Wish the bread was a little softer. Store has a lot of good Italian stuff. There's no seating for sandwiches but it's close to the park! read more

The chicken Caesar wrap was very good I loved it and I compare every Caesar wrap I have to this one, but I have to say the Milano special wasn't anything special. It sort of lacked flavor which is weird for an Italian sandwich and just had too much meat going on. I would come back for the Caesar wrap and their mini cannoli's are also amazing! read more

great sandwiches, don't just get a chicken caesar wrap! the palermo is my go to. also love the desserts, they have my favorite rainbow cookie. and great sides, i liked the stromboli. i love coming here to grab lunch or dinner. the staff are all kind and friendly. read more

I live near here and have been a handful of times. I have had the chicken Caesar wrap (7.5/10) which is probably my favorite but I've also had the Tartufo (6.5/10) and the Sicilian (7/10) and the BLT (7.5/10) which is a close second favorite of mine. I've tried their carrot cake and red velvet cupcakes but honestly hated both. The cakes were dry and the frostings way too sweet. Would recommend you skip the pastries. I've also had the soup of the day many many times, it's my go to when I'm sick. You can order online but I would go in person, there can occasionally be a line but it's rarely more than 10-15 minutes. When in the shop you can see the sides as well which I find to be a better experience. The workers are all very nice and efficient. The shop is small but there are some good groceries to browse while you wait in line. Over all I think it's a pretty good market, maybe not the best in the world but definitely dependable for a good sandwich with a decent amount of meat. read more

caesar salad wraps this one's my favorite caesar salad wraps out of all the ones i've had ugh why does it have to be in NYC it's a big portion but everything about it is so perfect. there's a great amount of sauce, its enough to give a lot of flavor without being too much and making the lettuce soggy. the crunch from the croutons is so satisfying, and the wrap isn't too soft or too crispy either. it's just so good milano market also has so many food options though. it kind of reminded me of erewhons hot bar, even though it's not like thattt similar. just the fact that there's tons of random food you can take home, and it all looks like it was made pretty fresh. this review is just for the caesar wrap tbh idk about the other stuff but this wrap was a 5/5 read more

Came here after hearing the hype of the chicken ceasar salad wrap and it was good!! A plentiful amount of chicken and the Caesar dressing was really nice! It wasn't my favorite chicken Caesar salad wrap I've ever had but it was definitely in the top five! Would come back here again Heads up, the lion can get along luckily we went at a time when it wasn't too busy, but have heard stories of long. Wait times! It's a counter service deli style. read more

I've been getting chicken parm's here for years. Usually they're great. The last two times have been pretty shitty - it was delivered cold (and not just cold because it was delivered by a driver, literally cold like it came out of the fridge). And today was the last straw. I went to the market and watched them put my chicken parm in the microwave. An abomination to the cutlet and the mozzarella. I'll be taking a break for the foreseeable future. read more

If I were to give Milano a review for their market it would definitely be a 5, they have the best stock of prosciutto di Parma, and San Daniele. And the cheese selection is also great. However when it comes to sandwiches, I don't know what the hype is about. I ordered the eggplant parm on a hero today, however it was just so bland. The bread (hero) I must say was delicious! However the rest was just so bland. Small cuts of eggplant which wasn't even hot and the mozzarella wasn't even melted either. It lacked flavor and satisfaction. I really can't recommend and understand the hype. And on top of it all it was $15 including tax and tip and they charge a 3% if paying with credit card! read more

Delicious! I always get the smoke show and it's consistently very good. The service is pretty quick as well. Portions are huge. Two people could easily split a sandwich. read more

Holy the sandwiches here are HUGE and so good for the price. Highly recommend sharing with someone. The market was in a cute corner on 3rd ave and the space is pretty small so the line goes around the shelves in the store. Lots of fresh made sides and sandwiches made to order. We waited about 20 minutes in line and 10 minutes for the food. The service is great and feels like a local favorite! Also central park is nearby so a perfect to go lunch or snack. read more

Saw the reviews and decided to walk over and try it. I didn't get the chicken caesar, which I will be back to try, but what I did get which was basically a pound of everything in the deli case and it was very good. read more

Came here for the Caesar wrap, which was hefty and filling but just ok. I've had better, like the one at Ggiata in Los Angeles. I was splitting two sandwiches with my brother, and we also tried the Bada-Bing, which was soppressata, prosciutto, mozzarella, and roasted peppers on a hero, which made for a bit of a tough chew but a good sandwich overall. There were probably fifty different sandwich options on this menu, in addition to a "make your own" section, and I really would have preferred around fifteen to twenty options. Would only come back here if I lived in the area and it was my neighborhood sandwich stop. read more

Ok I've been here before and got a sandwich. It looked incredible but was somehow lacking flavor. So then I was like I MUST try the Caesar wrap because that's apparently the iconic item. I've been hyping this up for SO long. It looked gorg. I was so excited. I'm so sad to share there is also literally no flavor??? The dressing has no garlic, anchovy, mustard or LEMON. I'm sorry but everyone hyping this up, have you ever had a flavorful Caesar my quest for the best wrap will continue. This ain't it. read more

Walking in and seeing all the great selection of prepped food was amazing until you tasted it. What a disgrace. i figured i would get a few salads for 4th of July gathering and was so embarrassed seeing everyone's face of the salads. The broccoli rabe salad was so tangy that you spitted it out right away not counting how hard it was, the fresh mozzarella balls with tomato salad was so dry , and the pasta with broccoli was as eating plain pasta. Not worth all thgat money. Better off going to your local supermarket for salads. read more

This is a very authentic old school Italian market in the upper east side. There are always a lot of people in and out of here and the staff does a great job at keeping things moving. I ordered the Chicken Caesar wrap and added Bacon to it which was a great touch. The croutons in the wrap were a great touch for texture and added flavor. read more

Splendid decor and full of authentic Italian food, this deli is easily a good neighborhood spot for taking out deli sandwiches and salads for picnic purposes. They have a ton of different Panini options, wraps, and homemade salads that taste good, but can sometimes be a bit average. For example, the meatball sandwich was a bit dry, even though it came with a ton of bread. There are also really good imported foods from Italy here, including crostini, olives, and tuna in a jar that can only be found in truly authentic Italian places. read more
